Re: Dead at funerals |
You bet....
Brokedown Palace, Winterland 6/8/77 will be played at mine.
Although, I'm having my funeral like Morrie did in "Tuesdays With Morrie" - I plan on being there so I can hear all the nice thngs people are going to say and enjoy all the good food.

Yes, the lyrics flub would be a fine commentary on the fallibility of all human life.

Re: Dead at funerals |
A very close friend's younger brother died years ago and when we scattered his ashes along the river/creek bed on their land in Mendocino County (within shouting distance of the hog farm) we all sang, through tears, Brokedown Palace. It was, to say the least, very moving.

Re: Dead at funerals |
Attics as intro music( a tribute to my wonderful wife). Then Black Muddy River as a moment of silence kind of thing. Brokedown as the ceremony ends, and folks are waiting to file out.

Re: Dead at funerals |
Can't believe nobody's mentioned "One Kind Favor" ("see that my grave is kept clean ...")

I agree with you on Black Muddy River too, though it gets no love around here.

Re: Dead at funerals |
What about Sing me Back Home.It's a church gospel sounding song to begin with.
